Dear Sir,
My father was an advocate, he passed away by 24 May 2017 due to heart attack. he was 74 years old. I did not know that he had joined the "u.p.-adhivakta kalyan nidhi nyasi samiti" or not.
How can I know that he was registered or not?
I heard that Bar Council of U.P. will pay some amount on the sudden death between the age of 60 to 80 of an advocate.
Being a member of your Advocate family Sir i am requesting you to please help me. I have 2 sisters after me to marry them. thanks

You may seek guidance from the local Bar Association or the Bar Council of the State. Every advocate, other than than those who are receipt of Pension, are entitled to member of the Welfare Fund.

Check with Bar council of UP officials.
Take help of friends of father and office bearers.
